We all know how hot and humid summer can be in Taiwan. A few seconds out the front door and you can already be sweating. The best way to cool down is to have a nice cold drink. There are plenty of choices to choose from, but here are the top 7 beverages that I would recommend to you guys:
Watermelon Lemonade

Iced Mocha
Like homemade mochas, iced mochas are relatively simple to make at home. The only ingredients needed are milk, cocoa powder, sugar, cold coffee, and occasionally a little whipped cream for added richness.

Bubble Milk Tea
Bubble tea, milk, ice, and chewy tapioca pearls are the ingredients that make up bubble milk tea. In case you’ve never heard of it or had the misfortune to encounter it, this excellent beverage is an Asian adaptation of the classic libation.

Fruit Slushies
They are created with fresh fruit, simple to make in a blender, and, best of all, they are served ice cold. You only need to add a few herbs for taste, some honey to make it sweeter, or some citrus for extra zing!

Ginger Beer
On a warm day, this beverage is lovely and cooling. It is also a key component in the well-known Moscow Mule cocktail. This is really simple and unexpectantly bubbly.
